- Today is the "descension" - DF flies in around 4:30. Let the games begin.
- HOT!
- Cute, Mary! Baseball is a great bonding activity! Love he got his name/pic on the jumbo screen!
- Patience waining. I'm hearing Saturday now! Ugh!
I'm a virtue that waits, calm and serene,
To reach a goal that's yet unseen!
With time on my side and a steady pace,
Guiding me towards a four-wheel embrace.
What am I, this trait so grand,
That will go anywhere across this great land?
Cheers,

Mornin' BBB
I saw the Hummer grill and I thought that has gotta be it. DF will be thrilled, no?
I think that when the dealer tells you the date of arrival, you should tack on at least 2 weeks.
Big house cleaning day. M comes home Saturday night and I gotta work Friday and Saturday. She vacuums and swiffers daily. Today will be the first day the vacuum and swiffer mop see action since she left 18 days ago. At least the laundry and dishes have been done daily. What?
BBB OP ;-)0 -
Good morning.
You're supposed to leave things unkempt, Lee. She needs to see that you can't survive without her. If anything, you should host a kegger Friday night.
I think the Opel checks all the boxes and fits the garage. 🤔

Classic Lou!
You ever watch the TV sitcom series "Friends"? M is very Monica like in her obsession with cleaning, so Lou, you are probably right that she will be pleased with the cleanup.0 -
Good morning BBB friends.
Sassy has had her morning inspection of the yard, eaten her breakfast, and is snoring softly at my elbow. Such a comforting sound.
I guessed a new Wrangler, weeks ago, and I hold to that. I am impressed by the daily poetic clues, though. Skip is a talented guy.

Good Morning,
Breakfast with Emmaus group,
Need to check on Birdie, cat that belongs to neighbor; I am not a cat person she will come out and watch me clean her water and food dish, replenish then clean litter box, but likes to watch from a far.
Will walk Pablo around while DW is in PT, instead of checking on DMIL.
Personal care home is still in quarantine for COVID.
I agree, if house too clean Mary will not feel needed when she returns and if it is very clean she is going to expect you to do more around the house daily.
Fiat would leave plenty of room in garage as well as provide basic transportation needs; though I doubt it would satisfy anyone's wants.
Mary, gathering at lake or DS's for DGS's birthday celebration; we do so much for little ones first birthday in which they do not know or understand what is going on. First birthday child would be better us taking all cost and buying savings bonds and putting away till they finish high school; but that would not satisfy adults and older kids.
Spent yesterday in 8 hour class discussing property taxes and proposed bills on November ballot and what is tied to bill which is not known to general public. All voters will know is Homestead Exemption, 40 odd pages reduced to a few lines.

Good morning BBB Friends.
- Oh Sam, I am so sorry I missed that class.
- Neighbor has a new Yorkie puppy named Murphee. DW and I puppy sat yesterday. About the size of a big hamster.
- Yep, there appears to be an upsweep of Covid running through the area. Fortunately, it is more like having the flu now.
- I am sure it will be good having Doc Mary home.

Dennis - i vaguely recall you and Kris were potentially considering a new fur baby? Shall we start another "stump the chump" guessing game? Haaaaa
SGM, glad you enjoy the daily banter! Life's too short. Like Lou, hang it out there and have fun!0 -
Morning BBB
Our Wednesday Spanish class got kicked out of the restaurant we were using (I'm guessing too many if us had coffee only) so we relocated. There was a mix up on times and only us and the teacher showed up. So we drove around town and. Checked out a few new options...settled on the 8/12...it has coffee and donuts and a handful of pre-made burrito options. But 3 coffees and a large donut bas the same price as 2 coffees at the last place so work for us.
Since we were her only students we just visited. She is American but her husband is Mexican and got deported so they live here now. She helped me with how Mexican addresses work and we delivered pencils to the backpack drive. She is a nice lady but boy do we lead different lives.
All the kids in my family had those cars Mary. They got to be pretty good drivers.0 -
I like the guess of the wrangler but I’m still sticking with Range Rover. Ha.0
